Maintenance
Precautions
Keep the scanner out of direct sunlight. Direct exposure to the sun or excessive heat may cause damage to the unit.
Do not install the scanner in a humid or dusty place. Moisture or excessive dust can impair the scanning mechanism and may cause damage to the unit.
Be sure to use the proper AC power source. A surge protector is highly recommended.
Place the scanner securely on an even, flat surface. Tilted or uneven surfaces may cause technical problems.
Retain the scanner box and packing materials for possible future shipping purposes.
Remember to unlock the scanner before connecting to a power source (see Scanner Setup).
If you are going to be moving the scanner, it is best to lock the scanning mechanism in place, failure to do so may cause damage to the unit.
Cleaning the Glass:
Wipe the scanner glass with a dry, soft, clean cloth to rid the glass of dust or other particles (such as from toner on photocopied or printed documents).
DO NOT use any solvents or other liquids to clean the glass. Liquid can seep around the edges of the glass.
It is best to wipe the glass in long even strokes. Be sure not to push any small particles into the tiny gap between the glass and plastic.
